The absolute state of this. "Ethical use" of a plagiarising, environment-destroying, slop-generating, anti-worker tool of techno-fascism? Just embarrassing.

good morning #PortfolioDay ! i'm viktor, a trans gay illustrator, looking for work in books, fantasy book boxes, ttrpgs, and comics. historical fiction, fashion, & fantasy is my cup of tea ✨🌿🌸🍵🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 🖼️ www.nooska-art.com ✉️ alex_dingley@hotmail.co.uk 🌿 www.patreon.com/nooska_draws ☕ ko-fi.com/nooska

A digital illustration of a purple, green, and grey-blue themed bookshelf. The book shelf is filled with old tomes, Victorian inspired knick-knacks such as keys, teacups, candles, and a flask of a potion. On one of the shelves there is a framed picture of an anatomical human heart, along with a skull resting on a stack of books. On another shelf, there is a bust of Diana the Greek goddess.

2 portrait illustrations side by side.
1. Digital illustration divided into 3 main panels.
Panel 1: bordered like a cathedral window frame. A nobleman worriedly tends to his wounded knight. The nobleman reaches up with his handkerchief to wipe blood off the knight's face. The knight has his eyes closed.
Panel 2. bordered like a medieval pennant banner. A close-up of the nobleman's face. He looks up at his knight in worry, but in also something like awe.
Panel 3: bordered like a medieval pennant banner. A close-up of the knight's face. His eyes are open and intense, staring at his nobleman. The nobleman wipes the blood off his knight's cheek with a white handkerchief.
Around the outside of these three panels are little illustrations and motifs. A swan and a fox representing the two characters. A sword surrounded by flowers and vines. Stars. Daisies (meaning innocence and new beginnings) and edelweiss (meaning complete devotion) flowers.
2. A digital illustration inspired by the pairing Hansry (Hans Capon and Henry of Skalitz from the game series Kingdom Come Deliverance). The illustration is influenced by a scene in the 2005 film Pride and Prejudice. It is separated into 3 panels.
Panel 1: Hans Capon looks behind him in quiet shock at his bodyguard Henry.
Panel 2: Henry has touched Hans' ungloved hand with his gauntleted one in a gentle hold. The panel is surrounded by blooming flowers: herbs and plants that Henry can forage on his journey. Marigold, St John's Wort, Valerian, Sage, Chamomile, and Dandelion.
Panel 3: Henry meets Hans' eyes with an unreadable expression. He quietly yearns beneath it.

2 portrait illustrations side by side.
1: A digital illustration. Elegy is a warforged barbarian inspired by Gothic cathedrals. She stands nobly in the centre, her arms crossed elegantly in front of her. Elegy holds a bright red sword to her. She is surrounded by a Gothic cathedral arch.

2: The cover for the book The Need for Dandelions by Alex Larkspur.
Two men stand back to back surrounded by depictions of dandelions. The man angled to the front is Galen. He has tan skin, red hair, and hazel eyes. A large portion of his face is covered by a burn scar. He wears a yellow tunic and brown pants, along with a pink flower pendant. He lifts up one hand, and looks concerned. The other man, facing towards the back but looks over his shoulder, is Sasha. He has light brown hair, dark brown eyes, and stubble. He is wearing leather armor and green shirt and pants. He is holding a sword.

An illustration inspired by the game Disco Elysium. It shows Kim and Harry sat at a table playing a boardgame: the boardgames features important characters and people of interest to the Hanged Man case (the case they solve over the course of the video game). Kim holds a card and looks determined while writing down notes in his notebook. Harry looks thoughtful, his hand reaching for a set of 6 sided dice.

So, in the past decade, 丑萌 (ugly cute) has been all the rage in China, reaching its peak with Ne Zha and Labuhu. Chasing that high, the trend now gives us SpongeBeb.

Could you spare 20euro for an urgent campaign?

Yasmeen is due to start her training course on the 10th Oct but we need the funds before then so she can buy a laptop.

This opportunity could her become self-sufficient.

The scene in Sleeping Beauty where Aurora's ascending the stairs and pricks her hand on the spindle. The green lighting, the music and the way she was in a trance terrified me as a child

Anybody accusing Loish of using AI is just admitting that they never paid any attention to online art spaces for the last couple decades.

Kasey Gifford@kaseygifford.bsky.social · 2w ago

Wow. LOISH got accused of using Ai to make her art. I started following her on early deviantart. I remember first seeing her paintings in college. This is ridiculous, no one is safe. Artists Ive followed for actual decades are getting harassed because their work has been stolen and regurgitated.

#DVpit #DVArt #GN #A When pursuing her goals drives a violent wedge between Melody and her partner, she's torn between being a "good partner" and a "good artist." VIOLAPSE is about choosing yourself over a broken fantasy and breaking out of roles that other people give you.
